The Indiana University SOCRATES PROJECT is contributing to a critically needed national improvement in university introductory physics education through research on and development of interactive engagement methods for cost- effective mastery learning. In particular, this project is further developing, improving, and promulgating the Socratic Dialogue Inducing (SDI) Lab method which has been shown to be effective in promoting student crossover to the Newtonian World. The focus is on mechanics and related areas (fluid statics and dynamics, oscillations, and waves). The testing ground is the Indiana University Physics Department's General Physics I, a large-enrollment, non-calculus based course for science (but not physics) majors (including prospective high- and middle-school teachers). "Real-world" in-class investigation, well-controlled out-of-class research with paid student subjects, and in-depth case studies are being utilized. The goals sought are to (1) improve and systematize the Socratic-dialogue and SDI lab techniques; (2) collaborate with other instructors to modify the SDI method for various instructional settings; (3) improve and extend the laboratory modules and instructor's guides; (4) more widely disseminate the method by means of publications, talks, workshops, and distribution of videotapes and lab modules; and (5) continue the construction of computer Force-Motion-Vector Animations to assist laboratory and lecture instruction.***//

印第安纳州大学苏格拉底项目正在为一个 国家急需改善大学 通过研究和 制定互动参与方法， 有效的掌握学习。特别是，该项目是 进一步发展、完善和传播苏格拉底哲学， 对话诱导（SDI）实验室方法已被证明是 有效地促进学生向牛顿的交叉 世界 重点是力学和相关领域（流体 静力学和动力学、振荡和波）。测试 地面是印第安纳州大学物理系的一般 物理我，一个大招生，非微积分为基础的课程， 科学（但不是物理）专业（包括未来的高， 中学教师）。 “真实世界”课堂 调查，控制良好的课外研究， 正在利用学生课题和深入的个案研究。 所寻求的目标是：（1）改善和系统化 苏格拉底对话和SDI实验室技术;（2）与 其他教师修改SDI方法， 教学环境;（3）改进和扩大实验室 模块和教员指南;（4）更广泛地传播 通过出版物、讲座、讲习班和 分发录像带和实验单元;以及（5）继续 计算机力-运动-矢量动画的构建， 协助实验室和讲座指导。*//
